Windows VPS with NVMe SSD — Storage That Keeps Up with Windows

Windows Server performs thousands of small random I/O operations per second just to keep the OS running. The registry, event logs, WMI repository, prefetch cache, and Windows Update database all generate constant disk activity. On spinning disks or slow SSDs, this background I/O competes with your applications and creates sluggish performance.

NVMe SSDs eliminate this bottleneck. With random read/write performance exceeding 500,000 IOPS and sequential throughput above 3 GB/s, NVMe drives handle Windows background I/O without breaking a sweat. Your applications get the full performance of the CPU and RAM without waiting for the disk.

The difference is immediately noticeable in RDP sessions. Windows boots in seconds, applications launch instantly, File Explorer responds without delay, and operations like compiling code or querying a database complete dramatically faster than on SATA SSD or HDD-backed VPS plans.

We use enterprise-grade NVMe drives — not consumer SSDs rebranded for servers. Enterprise drives feature power-loss protection, higher endurance ratings (3+ DWPD), and consistent performance under sustained load. Consumer SSDs throttle after filling their SLC cache; enterprise drives maintain their rated speed continuously.

All storage is configured in RAID-10, mirroring data across multiple drives for both performance and redundancy. If a single drive fails, your data is intact on the mirror and the array continues operating at full speed. Failed drives are hot-swapped by our operations team without downtime.

This combination of enterprise NVMe and RAID-10 delivers the reliability of a SAN with the latency of local storage. Your Windows VPS enjoys sub-100-microsecond access times and consistent throughput regardless of what your neighbors are doing — because each VPS has dedicated I/O allocations enforced at the hypervisor level.

SQL Server: Database workloads are I/O-bound by nature. NVMe storage reduces query execution time, speeds up index rebuilds, and handles high transaction volumes without the disk becoming the bottleneck. TempDB on NVMe is transformative for complex queries.

.NET Compilation: Building large .NET solutions involves reading thousands of source files, writing intermediate objects, and linking assemblies. NVMe cuts build times dramatically compared to SATA SSD — especially for solutions with hundreds of projects.

IIS with Heavy Traffic: Web servers that serve dynamic content, write logs, and manage session state generate substantial I/O. NVMe ensures IIS responses are limited only by your application logic, not by disk speed. Static file serving from NVMe approaches memory-cache speeds.

Every AnubizHost Windows VPS plan includes NVMe SSD storage — there is no "SSD upgrade" option because we do not offer anything slower. Plans start at $25/mo for 2 vCPU, 4 GB RAM, and 50 GB NVMe. Storage scales with tier: 100 GB at $39/mo, 200 GB at $55/mo, and 400 GB at $99/mo.

Need more storage than 400 GB? Additional NVMe block volumes can be attached to your VPS in 100 GB increments. These appear as separate drives in Windows Disk Management and can be formatted, partitioned, and used like any physical disk.

All plans include a dedicated IPv4, 1 Gbps unmetered port, DDoS protection, genuine Windows Server license, and full Administrator RDP access. Payment via Bitcoin, Monero, credit cards, or PayPal. Offshore locations in the Netherlands, Romania, and Iceland.
